Shortlisted

So it seems that one of my photos (I really ought to upload some of them to DA, but as I see myself primarily as a painter, I forget I have other skills/talents) has been shortlisted in a photography competition.

The photo


Was taken at about 7.15am on Kudle Beach, Gokarna, India when I was having breakfast.
I'd actually spotted the bull wander past the previous morning and had to wait 24 hours for him to wander past again so I could get the shot. And, being as I took the shot with an ordinary compact film camera, I didn't even know how good it was until the photo was developed back in the UK several months later.

You can read about the competition and the subsequent (not to mention imminent)exhibition here hub.the-aop.org/Whats_On/p2_ar…

Needless to say I'm quite excited by the prospect of the whole thing
